Astrid Paola Chavelas talks to social anthropologist Alejandro Castaneira (Autonomous University of Mexico, Iztapalapa) about the trajectory of the different socio-environmental conflicts caused by infrastructure projects planned and/or already implemented in the Isthmus, based on his long-term work on and with the Indigenous peoples of the region. He also addresses the hopes he has for the movements and communities that defend their land and territories in this historic moment. Podcast in Spanish.
